EasyGen writes the post. LinkyCoach gets you engaging.
EasyGen is an AI post generator — type a topic, get a LinkedIn post styled after top creators. LinkyCoach solves the other half of growth: showing up in the comments of the right people, in your own voice, consistently. This page is an honest look at the difference, including the reasons you might want EasyGen instead.
What EasyGen does, and where it stops
EasyGen (easygen.io) is a LinkedIn-focused AI writing tool built as a Chrome extension by creator Ruben Hassid. You give it a topic and it drafts a post — story, opinion, list, or how-to — modeled on high-performing content, and it can also generate hooks, headlines, and About-section copy. If your bottleneck is "I don't know what to post," it's a fast way to fill the blank page. But its scope is deliberately narrow:
- It writes; it doesn't engage. EasyGen produces posts. It has no watchlist, no way to surface other people's posts, and nothing to help you comment — which is where most relationships and reach on LinkedIn actually get built.
- Voice matching is shallow. It claims to learn your tone, but 2026 reviews repeatedly note output that reads generic and inconsistent unless you edit heavily.
- Pricing feels steep for one job. After 3 sample posts and a 7-day trial, EasyGen runs around $59.99/mo (roughly $49.99/mo billed annually) — for post generation only, with no analytics and no engagement tooling, as of August 2026.
None of that makes EasyGen bad — it makes it a writing tool. The question is whether writing more posts is really your growth bottleneck, or whether it's showing up in other people's comment sections without it becoming a chore.
How EasyGen and LinkyCoach compare
| What you're trying to do | EasyGen | LinkyCoach |
|---|---|---|
| AI post generation | Core strength: topic-to-post drafts in multiple formats, hooks, headlines | Writes post ideas and drafts in your voice, but it's a side feature — not bulk generation |
| Engagement action (commenting) | None — no way to find or act on other people's posts | The core surface: every tracked profile's posts land in one scored queue to comment on |
| AI comments in your voice | Not offered | Three comment tones (thoughtful, questioning, personal) from a voice profile built on your real posts |
| Habit & coaching | Content calendar only; no habit or coaching layer | Nudges, streak milestones (3/7/14/30/60/100 days), and a weekly engagement goal |
| Account safety approach | Chrome extension you connect to your LinkedIn to generate in-browser | No LinkedIn password, no cookie extension, never auto-posts — AI drafts, you post |
| Pricing | ~$59.99/mo (~$49.99/mo annual); 3 free posts then a 7-day trial | Free to start — no card, 3 days of full access; then Basic $29/mo, Pro $59/mo or Business $99/mo |
Where LinkyCoach fits
LinkyCoach is engagement-first by design. The loop: track the profiles that matter → their posts land in a feed scored 0–100 for relevance to you → each post comes with three comment drafts written from a voice profile learned from your actual posts → nudges and streaks keep the habit alive → timing recommendations come from your own posting history, not generic charts. It does help you draft posts in your voice too, but that's the supporting act — the main event is consistent, genuine engagement.
Safety is the headline, not a footnote: LinkyCoach never asks for your LinkedIn password, doesn't use a cookie-based extension, and never posts or comments on your behalf. Every AI draft waits for you to review, edit, and post it yourself.
Who should NOT pick LinkyCoach
Honesty over conversion. Skip us if any of these describe you:
- Your main need is an AI post generator. If the job is "help me churn out more LinkedIn posts," EasyGen is purpose-built for exactly that and will serve you better. LinkyCoach drafts posts, but it isn't a bulk content machine.
- You want a viral-content database or a scheduler. That's a content-tool feature set; it's not what we do. (A visual, carousel or video for your own post does exist, on Pro and Business.)
- You want auto-posting or automation. There's no scheduler and no auto-commenting — and there never will be. Every action is yours.
- You need team seats. LinkyCoach is a single-seat product today.
- You want deep historical analytics. We analyze your posting history for timing and voice, not multi-year metric dashboards.
